Tokens
Milanote's decoded design system: background #303B4B, text #ECECEE, accent #F4511C, link #303B4B, primary #F4511C; type scale h1 64px / h2 20px / body 28px; 8px spacing base; 0px base radius. The single interactive/action color is #F4511C — used only on interactive or must-notice elements (buttons, links, key highlights), never on large fills.

Using these colors
- Action color
#F4511C— the single interactive color; only on things you click or must notice, never large fills. primary,accent,button_bgare all#F4511C— one role, not several (the action color).- accent
#F4511C— THE accent / action color — interactive & must-notice only (buttons, links, focus, one key highlight); never large fills or backgrounds. Scarcity is what makes it read as designed. - link
#303B4B— fails contrast on the background (~1.0:1) — this is a dark UI color, NOT a readable link; use the text or action color for links (verify against the reference). - secondary
#46505F— optional secondary accent — LOW decode confidence; use rarely (a status color or a single decorative moment) or omit it entirely. Prefer one accent unless the reference clearly shows two.
